3. Will the secretary who works at Goldman-Sachs be permitted to contribute?

How about the personal assistant who works at a pharmaceutical company?

What kills me is that if we apply the same standards that the BS campaign is applying to other candidates, these small donations from ordinary employees would amount to BS receiving "Wall Street Money" or "Big Pharma Money".

So... is BS refusing these donations from people who happen to work for these companies? Or is there a different standard being applied?

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
